In this episode of the KPI Cafe, Dr. Scott Garlock, the Executive Director of the Cleveland Jazz Orchestra, shares his insights and passion for the only true American art form. Whether you're an avid jazz listener or have never really witnessed the beauty of this form of musical improvisation, there is plenty to glean: the history of jazz, introducing yourself to jazz through fusion and funk, the way players meet creatively while playing, and much more.
You'll also get to learn more about the Cleveland Jazz Orchestra itself, including the wonderful work they do in taking musical instruments as donations, refurbishing them, and providing underprivileged middle-school and high-school students an opportunity to discover the joy of playing.
I promise that you'll break out the vinyl (as I do) or pop on some downloads or streaming to jam out to some tunes -- and, hopefully, they'll be to one of the greats like Coltrane, Brubeck, or Davis.
